An apparatus for sealing at least a portion of the urinary tract to prevent the unwanted discharge of urine includes a body member with a tubular member, encircled along its length by an overcoat layer, that encases a fluid, foaming a cavity. The body member, with its tubular member and overcoat layer are elastically deformable from an initial "rest" or "relaxed" state, when outside of the body, where at least a portion of the overcoat layer is of a diameter equal to or greater than that of an undilated urethra. A stylet may be placed into the tubular member to serve as a guide, for elongation of the body member and to provide rigidly to the body member upon insertion into the urinary tract. There is also disclosed a method for making the apparatus of the present invention.

Le corps ainsi que l'élément tubulaire et la gaine sont élastiquement déformables entre un état initial de repos ou de relâchement et un état où au moins une partie de la gaine présente un diamètre extérieur égal ou supérieur au diamètre de l'urètre non dilaté. On peut placer dans l'élément tubulaire un stylet servant au guidage, à l'élongation et à la rigidification du corps lors de son introduction dans les voies urinaires.
